I'm Sorry Stolas (Helluva Boss)

I let you in too deep, yeah, I let you see the scars

Thought I was just a pawn in your grand parade of stars

I can't believe someone like you could ever feel the same

I'm just a lowly imp stuck in this endless game

"All I ever wanted was to make you proud," you said

But I was haunted by the demons in my head

I pushed away every time you'd try to pull me near

Couldn't face the truth blinded by my fear

I'm sorry, Stolas, for the hurt I've caused

For the broken dreams, and the lines I crossed

I'm just an imp with a past so dark

Lost in the shadows, can't find a spark

In the circus, we were kids, a friendship bought and sold

My father's greed, my mother's tears, stories left untold

15 years of running, from a fire I can't escape

Burnt bridges, broken hearts, all wrapped up in tape

"You make it clear, you have no interest," I screamed

But deep down, I knew we shared more than it seemed

You laughed at my jokes, called me just to chat

But I couldn't see past the royalty, and that

I'm sorry, Stolas, for the pain I bring

For the broken dreams, and the lines I crossed

I'm just an imp with a past so dark

Lost in the shadows, can't find a spark

I'm sorry, Stolas, for the pain I bring

For the shattered hopes, and the songs you sing

I'm just an imp in a world so cold

Trying to find, a hand to hold

I see you now, dancing with someone new

And I realize the damage that I do

I never meant to hurt you, never meant to break

But my heart's a puzzle with pieces I forsake

I'm sorry, Stolas, for the love I lacked

For the nights you cried, and the trust I cracked

I'm just an imp, with a soul so torn

Trying to mend where my spirit's worn

So here's my plea, my final, honest try

I'm broken, damaged, but I'll never lie

I hope one day, you'll see the real me too

An imp who loved but never knew how to
